If I had to chose between Polygamy and Gay Marriage I would pick Polygamy any day—its in the Bible. People are going to do it now the children will have some legal standing—at least un Utah.

Here Christ forbids both divorce and, by logical inference, polygamy, as to marry another wife after a divorce is adultery.

“And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away? He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.”
(Mat 19:4-9)

In this case the problem is polygamy but Muslims. The number of Americans eager for polygamous unions other than in southern Utah are few. The number of Muslims are many and they have a mountain of money behind their retardate and dysfunctional culture and its project for ruling the planet.

If polygamy becomes accepted and legal, there will be chaos in the courts. How many people can marry? A thousand? What if some want a divorce but some of the others don’t? How will they figure out who and what belongs to whom? It will clog the courts and turn the laws about inheritance and other things upside down.

That is nothing compared to the damage done to children. The whole idea, like gay marriage (which is an abusdity), is sick.
